Formatter Simple

Portable Presenter has a few formatters, which each enable someone to specify what text should appear on a slide. The simple formatter is a simplified version of the markup formatter: it detects nested lists from your indentation in the specification.

An example says it all:

Simple		Markup
not nested - item - item2 - nested - also <B>nested</B> not nested.	equals	not nested <UL> <LI>item <LI>item2 <UL> <LI>nested <LI>also <B>nested</B> </UL> </UL> not nested.

The simplified list scheme may make life easier --at least, you need less effort to type lists. There is an even more simplified way to get things to work: the plain-formatter, but then the quality will suffer by simplicity.

Simple Formatter Options

The simple formatter is a sub-class of the markup formatter, so has

the general formatter options and
the markup formatter options,
but no own options (yet)
